added 120 Gb SSD to macbook core duo

Mi Problema

i wanted to try an SSD in my macbook. i am considering upgrading to a mini or air. i wanted to see how the SSD performs, and if i could easily use it for my boot drive.

Mi Solución

it was an easy enhancement. i formatted the SSD as a usb device. inserted the SSD into my mac. installed os x and updated the os online to 10.6.8. then i transferred files from my old boot drive to the new SSD. most of my data resides on a 1T external drive. it's good that time machine can backup multiple volumes.
